Sipho is 11. For months, he skipped breakfast, so his younger sister could eat before school.
That changed when the feeding scheme started at his primary school this year.
Now both Sipho and his sister get a hot meal before the first bell rings.
He says he concentrates better in math class, and he's stopped worrying about lunchtime.
His mother works long shifts as a domestic worker and does everything she can to keep her children fed and in uniform.
The school kitchen — run by two local mamas and a handful of volunteers — has become one less thing she has to carry alone.
R15 covers one hot meal for a child like Sipho.
